1000 BFT of poplar for a barn. If a sawmill isn’t broken, it’s about to break… I had to take the log holder to a machine shop and have a new bolt welded in place so I could hold the logs. Then, I had to buy a new battery to start the darn sawmill. (well it was about 5 years old) There were also a couple of other issues to fix before I could finish this order. This week I’m sawing more poplar and oak. I’ve got some beautiful logs on the log deck.

If you cut that wood, it’s understood
That the customer will cheer and maybe buy you a beer…..
or
If the planks are straight, they’ll think you are great.
